I thought maybe people might be interested in seeing these. When I got an iPad Pro back in September, one of the things I really wanted to do was try my hand at some graphics for the site. It has always been something I couldn't do, and I hate always bothering SWL or CheeZe to do them for me. So I almost immediately started toying around with ideas for Vidmas. If it wasn't obvious yet, I wanted to do a colorful, graffitti type aesthetic. The main inspiration was actually Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto album artwork.

That being said, being the obsessive person I am, I made many variations of the graphic, and subsequently agonized over which to go with. I ultimately deferred to what Reed and Bless thought was best, and that's the graphic that has been used. But I wanted to share them all in a higher quality so you could see all of the variations and little inside jokes, if you're interested.

you guys definitely picked the right one, especially because my MVZ title design is on it lol. What could have made it a bit better would have been a wall texture on top of the graffiti and brighter colors, just like on your reference pic. You also never bothered me with these requests btw, but it's nice to see that you're giving it a shot as well

Think you made the right choice with the graphic all of them are cool in there own way but the one you went with was the nicest, in my opinion, can see you were gonna get the Pehroxysm joke in there one way or another lol.

Starting to feel the pressure on getting videos done. I've become kind of disappointed in my video, so I am planning my strategy to finish a new video by Sunday and the Copa idea and video done by next Sunday before the Monday of the event.

I just feel like I can do better. This decision will either make or break me. Or both, who knows? lol

For anyone interested, this is a very small piece of the video I was going to enter into competition. The idea was using three different Jimi Hendrix tunes, and 26 different films from the New Hollywood movement. The films were split up into three categories, with each category having its own song. Sadly, YouTube immediately blocks any video with a Hendrix track.

I would love to see the rest of this! I've heard of the term "New Hollywood", I just never really knew what it was about. However, now that I know about some of the movies that were a part or this movement, I'm really excited to see how this turns out. Sucks that we won't see this sooner rather than later.
